Q Instructions: Read "Composing," specifically the sections on "Types of Writing Styles," "Understanding the Assignment," and "Assessing the Writing Situation," and take notes on this chapter. Upload your notes to this assignment. In addition to your notes, answer these two reflection questions: 1. What do you understand about writing assignments now that you didn't before? 2. What questions do you still have about writing styles, assignments, or writing situations? Notes on Note Taking: Note Taking, especially when reading textbook chapters, is an important skill. In this course, rather than give you reading quizzes, I will ask you to upload your notes for each of the assigned readings. You may type or hand write these notes. If you hand write these notes, either scan or take a photo of your notes to upload to this assignment. Effective note taking varies by the person and the learning style, so take your reading notes in whatever method your find the most comfortable, e.g. Cornell or a Thought Map, etc. If you prefer to hand-write your notes, you can use scanner apps for your phone to make PDFs easily so that you do not have to upload multiple pictures. This list from Wirecutter at the New York Times (Links to an external site.) has affordable and free apps for Android and iPhone.
